The ManningCast is a hit!
The alternate broadcast of ESPN’s Monday Night Football features Peyton and Eli Manning watching and commenting on games from their homes. The broadcast has been well-received by fans and Peyton and Eli are set to call six more regular-season games this season plus a playoff game in January (here’s the full ManningCast schedule).
And as an ultimate sign that the broadcast has made it big time, the ManningCast was spoofed on last week’s episode of Saturday Night Live on NBC.
The Mannings have never been afraid to make fun of themselves, so it’s no surprise that Eli had a lighthearted response to the spoof.
“To get made fun of on SNL, a dream come true,” Eli tweeted.

Peyton has been featured on SNL several times in the past, including his classic pickup youth football skit from 2007. More recently, Peyton went on SNL earlier this year to talk about Emily in Paris.
